I tried, but, after installation, applications "Fireface settings" and "Totalmix" don't open.

Communication between the computer and the interface seems not to be established.
Check different ports and try different cables

Also check the MacOS system report if USB has an entry.

You didn't explain how you connected this FireWire interface with your MacBoo Pro.

@Waedi: no different ports, no USB...

Hi senzabbento
What Macbook model do you have? Intel or M1/M2? Related to that, have you followed all the needed steps?

I expected USB adapters for the Firewire connections...

Thunderbolt then, not USB wink

I've connected my Fireface with tree cables... from My FIreface 800 to Mac: firewire > adapter FireWire/Thunderbolt > adapter Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C)/Thunderbolt 2
but the adapter aren't Original Apple...

This fact maybe causes the problem here.
